Ingress protection ratings is the level of protection given by an enclosure, against dust and liquids. The letters 'IP' are followed by two values The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, followed by the one that refers to resistance against liquids (water).
Scoring IPX4, the Technics EAH AZ80's rating for solids indicates that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes. In comparison to the Technics EAH AZ80, Jabra Elite 7 Pro have a rating of IP57 meaning that
ingress of dust is not totally prevented but dust does not enter in harmful quantities to interfere with the correct operation or impair safety
and that of liquids is that,
Technics EAH AZ80 has a lower liquid rating than Jabra Elite 7 Pro
Technics EAH AZ80 have a weight of 14g . We prefer a lower weight best because lighter devices are easier to carry.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro, at 10.8g
are lighter than the Technics EAH AZ80 with a difference -3.2g
For a device to be true wireless it should have no wires connecting any part of the device together, Technics EAH AZ80 are true wireless for this case since they have no cables. This is a key difference since wireless earbuds have wires linking the 2 earbuds .
Jabra Elite 7 Pro also is true wireless because it doesn't have wires connecting the two earbuds .
Technics EAH AZ80 are resistant to sweat
Jabra Elite 7 Pro's resistance to sweat makes both devices fit for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, cardio sweat workouts , etc
Technics EAH AZ80 have stereo speakers, what this means is that Technics EAH AZ80's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience. The Jabra Elite 7 Pro also have stereo speakers
ANC utilises advanced technology to actively counter noise.
How it works, it listens to the sound pattern of incoming noise and then inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) and adding -1 (inverted noise) to make zero thus "diluting" the noise.
Technics EAH AZ80 have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower levels of volume, causing less ear fatigue as you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro too have ANC making both earbuds ideal for flights and morning travels. The Technics EAH AZ80 and Jabra Elite 7 Pro operate with different noise cancellation modes, pick the noise cancellation type that suits your commute or that suites your chill time. Technics EAH AZ80 stay tightly in place, this creates a sound covering that tones down your environment sounds and also prevents the earbuds music from leaking out .
Both of these devices have passive noise reduction which implies that they limit ambient noise without using technology to cancel it out.
Technics EAH AZ80 driver unit is 10mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass. The driver unit is the component that makes sound in the device, its size dictates the loudness of the earbuds. Jabra Elite 7 Pro driver unit is 6mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Technics EAH AZ80 by 4mm
, many people have a misconception that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so yes, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not mean that they deliver better quality sound. Technics EAH AZ80's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component generates low recognizable frequencies and if it alters the signal on its way through. Jabra Elite 7 Pro's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, this means that
both devices can make sound with equal bass
The Technics EAH AZ80's highest frequency is at 40,000Hz, high-frequency response measures if and how well an audio component generates high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, this means that
Technics EAH AZ80 produce a clearer and crispier treble than the Jabra Elite 7 Pro
The Technics EAH AZ80's battery life is 7.5 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average for a single charge. A device's battery life is commonly given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often. Jabra Elite 7 Pro's battery life is
more than that of Technics EAH AZ80 by 1.5 hours
. Each time you recharge your device, they get a little less playing time.
The effect is not noticeable at first, but over a few years, your wireless earbuds will no longer play for long like they used to. This is given by the vendor, and the Technics EAH AZ80's case has a charge of 17.5 hours. A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go many times before recharging the case itself.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro's charging case has a battery life of 24 hours,
more than that of Technics EAH AZ80 by 6.5 hours
It takes 2 hours to fully charge the Technics EAH AZ80's battery. It is recommended to charge fully the battery before using the earbuds when they have been unused for long periods. The Technics EAH AZ80, the device supports wireless charging.
To charge the device, you just put down on a supported charging pad. Jabra Elite 7 Pro also support wireless charging, take note of the charging standard of a device. The Technics EAH AZ80 have a battery level indicator, an indicator alerts you when the earbuds has a low battery.
Its lights show the charging state of your device and case. Jabra Elite 7 Pro too have a battery level indicator, charging indicators enable you tell the charging state of your earbuds, if charged fully, or the battery is running low. The Technics EAH AZ80 support USB TYPE-C, an industry-standard connector for transmitting both data and power through a single cable.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro too use USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug comes along with most current laptops, phones, and tablets. Technics EAH AZ80 have Bluetooth version of 5.3, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that allows data movement between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Jabra Elite 7 Pro has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
older than that of Technics EAH AZ80
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers. Technics EAH AZ80 have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth. Jabra Elite 7 Pro have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Technics EAH AZ80
Technics EAH AZ80 support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio.
It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Technics EAH AZ80 will work fine with your MacBook.
If you intend on using these with Android you need to pay even closer attention to codec support for if they only have AAC they won't provide the best audio quality possible, ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well. Technics EAH AZ80 support LDAC, a codec developed by Sony
which allows streaming high-resolution audio over Bluetooth connections at up to 990 kbps at 32 bit/96 kHz. It can reach a high bitrate of 990kbps, which provides high-resolution audio.
The Technics EAH AZ80 have 8 microphones. The Jabra Elite 7 Pro microphones are 8,
equal to that of the Technics EAH AZ80
. More microphones record better sound quality and help the device to filter out noise. The Technics EAH AZ80 have a noise-canceling type of microphone, these microphones are intended to reduce noise from the earbuds' sound.
The Jabra Elite 7 Pro too use a noise-canceling type of microphone. This is useful in noisy areas. Technics EAH AZ80 support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to pass through ambient noises so that they can still be heard even when wearing them
